Allowing people to add devices to a VG that has PVs missing helps
people avoid the inability to repair RAID LVs in certain cases.
For example, if a user creates a RAID 4/5/6 LV using all of the
available devices in a VG, there will be no spare devices to
repair the LV with if a device should fail. Further, because the
VG is missing a device, new devices cannot be added to allow the
repair. If 'vgreduce --removemissing' were attempted, the
"MISSING" PV could not be removed without also destroying the RAID
LV.
Allowing vgextend to operate solves the circular dependency.
When the PV is added by a vgextend operation, the sequence number is
incremented and the 'MISSING' flag is put on the PVs which are missing.
Monitoring is handled using "vgchange --monitor" call. Ensure that lvmetad is up
and running at the time of this call to prevent any fallback to direct scan
within the vgchange. The same applies for shutdown sequence but the other way
round - switch monitoring off and lvmetad afterwards.
Commit 8767435ef8 allowed RAID 4/5/6
LV to be extended properly, but introduced a regression in device
replacement - a critical component of fault tolerance.
When only 1 or 2 drives are being replaced, the 'area_count' needed
can be equal to the parity_count. The 'area_multiple' for RAID 4/5/6
was computed as 'area_count - parity_devs', which could result in
'area_multiple' being 0. This would ultimately lead to a division by
zero error. Therefore, in calc_area_multiple, it is important to take
into account the number of areas that are being requested - just as
we already do in _alloc_init.
A regression introduced in 2.02.89 (11e520256b)
caused the lvm dumpconfig <node> to print out
the node as well as its subsequent siblings.
The information about "only_one" mode got lost.
Before this patch (just an example node):
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
thin_check_executable="/usr/sbin/thin_check"
thin_check_options="-q"
(...all nodes to the end of the section)
With this patch applied:
# lvm dumpconfig global/use_lvmetad
use_lvmetad=1
If a daemon (like lvmetad that is using common daemon-server code)
received a kill signal that was supposed to shut the daemon down,
a spurious message was issued: "Failed to handle a client connection".
This happened if the kill signal came just in the middle of waiting
for a client request in "select" - the request that was supposed to
be handled was blank at that moment of course.
Update lvchange to allow change of 'zero' flag for thinpool.
Add support for changing discard handling.
N.B. from/to ignore could be only changed for inactive pool.
Add arg support for discard.
Add discard ignore, nopassdown, passdown (=default) support.
Flags could be set per pool.
lvcreate [--discard {ignore|no_passdown|passdown}] vg/thinlv
When --sysinit -a ay is used with vg/lvchange and lvmetad is up and running,
we should skip manual activation as that would be a useless step - all volumes
are autoactivated once all the PVs for a VG are present.
If lvmetad is not active at the time of the vgchange --sysinit -a ay
call, the activation proceeds in standard 'manual' way.
This way, we can still have vg/lvchange --sysinit -a ay called
unconditionally in system initialization scripts no matter if lvmetad
is used or not.
Reducing a RAID 4/5/6 LV or extending it with a different number of
stripes is still not implemented. This patch covers the "simple" case
where the LV is extended with the same number of stripes as the orginal.
In process_each_pv() if we haven't yet scanned and the PV appears
to be an orphan, we must scan the other PVs looking for mdas that
reference it to find out what VG it is in.
1. If the PV has no mdas, we must scan.
2. If the PV has an mda that is not ignored we do not need to scan.
3. If the PV has an mda that is ignored, we do need to scan.
This patch fixes case 3.

Change 'lv_passes_volumes_filter' fn back to static as it's not
actually needed in the other code (a remnant from devel version).
Fix lvm.conf comment referencing '--autoactivate' which was finally
decided to be '--activate ay'.
If _alloc_parallel_area for raid devices chooses an area already used
up, it doesn't notice that it has no space left in it and leaves
later code trying to place a zero-length area into the LV.

The clmvd init script called "vgchange -aly" before to activate
all VGs in cluster environment. This activated all VGs, no matter
if it was clustered or not.
Auto activation for clustered VGs is not supported yet so the behaviour
of -aay is still the same as before for clustered VGs. However, for
non-clustered VGs, we need to check with the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
whether the VG/LV should be activated on boot or not.
One can use "lvcreate --aay" to have the newly created volume
activated or not activated based on the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
this way.
Note: -Z/--zero is not compatible with -aay, zeroing is not used in this case!
When using lvcreate -aay, a default warning message is also issued that zeroing
is not done.
Define auto_activation_handler that activates VGs/LVs automatically
based on the activation/auto_activation_volume_list (activating all
volumes by default if the list is not defined).
The autoactivation is done within the pvscan call in 69-dm-lvmetad.rules
that watches for udev events (device appearance/removal).
For now, this works for non-clustered and complete VGs only.
Normally, the 'vgchange -ay' activates all volume groups (that pass
the activation/volume_list filter if set).
This call can appear in two scenarios:
- system boot (so activation within a script in general)
- manual call on command line (so activaton on user's direct request)
For the former one, we would like to select which VGs should be actually
activated. One can define the list of VGs directly to do that. But that
would require the same list to be provided in all the scripts.
The 'vgchange -aay' will check for the activation/auto_activation_volume_list
in adition and it will activate only those VGs/LVs that pass this
filter (assuming all to be activated if the list is not defined - the
same logic we already have for activation/volume_list).
Init/boot scripts should use this form of activation primarily
(which, anyway, becomes only a fallback now with autoactivation done
on PV appearance in tandem with lvmetad in place).
Define an 'activation_handler' that gets called automatically on
PV appearance/disappearance while processing the lvmetad_pv_found
and lvmetad_pv_gone functions that are supposed to update the
lvmetad state based on PV availability state. For now, the actual
support is for PV appearance only, leaving room for PV disappearance
support as well (which is a more complex problem to solve as this
needs to count with possible device stack).
Add a new activation change mode - CHANGE_AAY exposed as
'--activate ay/-aay' argument ('activate automatically').
Factor out the vgchange activation functionality for use in other
tools (like pvscan...).
We're refererring to 'activation' all over the code and we're talking
about 'LVs being activated' all the time so let's use 'activation/activate'
everywhere for clarity and consistency (still providing the old
'available' keyword as a synonym for backward compatibility with
existing environments).
Update release_lv_segment_area not to discard any PV extents,
as it also gets used when moving extents between LVs.
Instead, call a new function release_and_discard_lv_segment_area() in
the two places where data should be discarded - lv_reduce() and
remove_mirrors_from_segments().
Remove executable path detection in udev rules and use sbindir that
is configured, but still provide the original functionality by means
of 'configure --enable-udev-rule-exec-detection'.
Normally, the exec path for the tools called in udev rules should
not differ from the sbindir used, however, there are cases this is
necessary. For example different environments could be assembled
in a way that these path differ for some reason (distribution installer,
initrd ...).
This functionality is kept for compatibility only. Any environment
moving the binaries around and using different paths should be fixed
eventually!
There were several hard-coded values for run directory around the code.
Also, some tools are DM specific only, others are LVM specific and there
was no distinction made here before. With this patch applied, we have
this cleaned up a bit (subsystem in brackets, defaults in parentheses):
[common] configurable PID_DIR (/var/run)
lvm [lvm] configurable RUN_DIR (/var/run/lvm)
configurable locking dir (/var/lock/lvm)
clvmd [lvm] configurable pid file (PID_DIR/clvmd.pid)
socket (RUN_DIR/clvmd.sock)
lvmetad [lvm] configurable pid file (PID_DIR/lvmetad.pid)
socket (RUN_DIR/lvmetad.socket)
dm [dm] configurable DM_RUN_DIR (/var/run)
cmirrord [dm] configurable pid file (PID_DIR/cmirrord.pid)
dmeventd [dm] configurable pid file (PID_DIR/dmeventd.pid)
server fifo (DM_RUN_DIR/dmeventd-server)
client fifo (DM_RUN_DIR/dmeventd-client)
The changes briefly:
- added configure --with-default-pid-dir
- added configure --with-default-dm-run-dir
- added configure --with-lvmetad-pidfile
- by default, using one common pid directory for everything
(only lvmetad was not following this before)
